Blog NIGHTBRINGER's Painting Blog - 1000 point (not so) year end Chaos Dwarfs challenge (78.2%)

[Lord-Marcus]

But vile Chaos sorcery that got me to paint... now that is POWER!

Keep going!

 

[NIGHTBRINGER]

Keep going!

Unfortunately I started playing Skyrim.... realistically there will be no painting for the foreseeable future.

And I've started playing return of reckoning. I'm going to jump between that and painting

Sweet! They look great! And with movement tray to boot!

Sweet! They look great!

Thank you!

And with movement tray to boot!

I don't paint models often so I figured they might as well move around in style.

What sorcery is this? Hellcannon crew... done & done! (the bases will get their final drybrush highlight once the cannon is based so I can match them up perfectly)

 

[Lord-Marcus]

Loving those Chaos Dwarfs! Any thoughts of doing a whole army in the same scheme?

Thank you kindly. They took me a very long time to finish... but I am happy with the results. I'm especially happy with the skin and the red sections. I wish the leather was a bit better, but it's a good step for me.

I painted Dwarfs!!!

No plans of painting a whole Chaos Dwarf army. I have so many unpainted models between my Lizardmen, Warriors of Chaos and Tomb Kings that I will never get them all finished.

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks @Crowsfoot . The cannon is mostly done. I just need to complete the furnace doors at the back, the chains that tie it to the ground and the skulll piles (soooo many skulls). After that I have some assembly work to put on the doors, wheels and chains. Lastly, I need to complete its base. I'm a little bit worried as to how I will securely anchor the (metal) hellcannon to its base.

Drill and pin the under side of the wheels or use 2 pack epoxy glue

That was my thinking as well (pinning and 2 part epoxy). The only problem is that it will have to be a pretty shallow pin into the wheels because of the hollowed out section.

They look really good.

@Crowsfoot : Is there any way that you could move my painting blog into the general "Painting and Converting" sub-forum or would it be easier if I just created a new blog there?

Please & thanks!
